When police reported to the scene at Newark and Court streets, Coons was yelling profanities at nearby pedestrians and the taxi driver, reports said.

When a police officer attempted to arrest him for disorderly conduct, he refused to put his hands behind his back and struggled with four officers before the arrest could be made, reports said.

At police headquarters, Coons refused to give his name, age and other basic information, instead responding to each question with, "F--- you," reports said. When told he would eventually have to tell a judge this information, he replied, "F--- the judge too," reports said.

Eventually, he relented and gave his information, reports said, adding that Coons also had more outbursts, even kicking the police department's automatic fingerprint identification system, reports said. The machine appeared to be undamaged, reports said.

Coons was charged with disorderly conduct and resisting arrest, reports said, adding that he also received a summons for disturbing the peace.
